    How Do Trees Absorb Nutrients and Survive Winter?

    Nutrients are generally transported throughout the plant's tissue through the phloem. The phloem can be visualized as a network of tubes connecting places where nutrients are produced or taken in (source areas) and places that use or store the nutrients (sink areas). Cells are capable of both...

    Rotation of wheel between two non-slip surfaces

    So looking at the problem assuming both the point of contact on the top and the bottom are stationary with respect to their respective surfaces, and the relative motion between P and Q is -9m/s. Assigning p and q add the respective points of contact, I can then use the relative velocities to...

    Rotation of wheel between two non-slip surfaces

    Homework Statement A certain machine can be modeled as a wheel between two translating bodies. Point P is on the upper translating body and is moving to the left at 6m/s and Point Q is on the lower translating body and is moving to the right at 3 m/s. The radius of the wheel is .3m. Find...
